What a year it has been. I am sure we can call 2020 a historic year, but I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who has supported me and my family.
I have set up this new business in August 2020 and it has been reassuring since then. Many things have happened in the last 4 months which I will update little by little but one thing I have learned was that tough times bring opportunity. Although I have not been active online, my business has continued to bring me joy and hope for the future.
This global lockdown taught us many things such as the importance of staying safe, being positive, not being angry about the past, not being worried about the future, the importance of focusing on the present, being grateful for what we have and being kind to others.
Through this pandemic, we have had lots of challenges and uncertain news. Despite this, let's keep faith that 2021 will be a lighter and brighter year, full of possibility.
This global lockdown has also made us realise how important it is to have a social life with lovely friends and family and to be able to keep in touch with them. It is so easy to be grateful for those around us from a distance without actively arranging to meet or talk with them. We all have very busy lives and so this is, of course, understandable. This lockdown has helped me to realise the importance of talking and meeting those around us. Often, we can only appreciate things once they have been taken from us. And so, I would like to take this opportunity to encourage us all to speak with those we love, albeit online until the time comes when we can properly meet again.
２０２０年は何とも歴史的一年となりましたが、家族一同大変お世話になりました。
昨年8月に、今までの経験を生かして新たな一歩を踏み出しましたが、あっという間であったこの4ヶ月間、実に沢山の出来事に向き合うことになりました。ショッキングなことや困難もありましたが、それ以上に貴重な機会や出会いに恵まれ、新たな目標も定まり、実りある日々を過ごす中で沢山の気づきがありました。これはおいおいブログで紹介させていただきたいと思います。
世界中コロナの渦に巻き込まれていますが、ピンチはチャンスと心得て、どんな時も前向きに問題に向き合うことを忘れず、過去に怒りを覚えたり未来に不安を感じたりする代わりに、現在にフォーカスし、今あるものに感謝をし、人に親切にすることを忘れずに今の自分にできる最善を尽くすことの大切さを教えてもらっているように感じています。
怒涛の２０２０年も何とか乗り越え、そして太陽はまた上り私たちに変わらぬパワーを与えてくれているから、私たちの持つポジティブエネルギーで、自然と向き合い、自然に感謝し、自然と共に一歩づつ進んで行けたらと思います。そうして迎えた２０２１年が、さらに進化発展を遂げ素晴らしい年になることを願っています。
会えなくなって気づく家族や友の大切さを再認識し、再び会える日が来ることを夢見て楽しみを心に描きつつ、今年はさらに実りある良い年にしていければと思っています。
本年もどうぞよろしくお願いいたします。
